Caleb Giddings' 1911 Ratings List

123

A good, quick read over some popular 1911s.

My experiences mirror pretty much everything he says in the piece. If your'e shopping for a new 1911 it's worth taking the 10 minutes or so to read.

Our 1911 rating system here at Gun Nuts has a considerable amount of data fed into it from shooting competition and taking classes over the years. Thanks to that, I can actually compile a fairly comprehensive list of 1911s and the order in which we generally recommend them to our readers. But instead of providing a group of tiers, Iím instead going to list major 1911 brands in no particular order with our combined observations and recommendations for them. If I miss a manufacturing that youíre wondering about, let me know in the comments.
